    Any new single-family construction outside of Irvine?

    Looking to possibly upgrade our Irvine home and willing to venture out a bit. However, we really don't like the floor plans and look of older builds and don't want to get into a large renovation project. We also don't want to pay a premium for someone else's reno that 99% of the time doesn't...

    How I went to restoration school and paid a hefty price

    Ah, gotcha. Well I've been a member on here quite a while. You guys helped me buy my house in Irvine and I still lurk once in a while to read through the discussions :)

    How I went to restoration school and paid a hefty price

    Why warning? I can post everything here verbatim if you prefer not to click any links. It's a blogger site. I tried to focus on facts. I'm a software engineer. I live in Stonegate (San Mateo). Not selling anything.

    How I went to restoration school and paid a hefty price

    I came to share my extremely poor experience going through restoration of my home. Yes, it's a review, but my hope is that others who go through a similar experience... Here's the full story in case anyone is interested. Happy to discuss and get people's thoughts. Have you used a restoration...

    Elections for Stonegate HOA board

    Hi folks, Haven't been on here for a while (roughly since purchasing my home). Also apologize in advance if I'm posting in the wrong forum. I am running for the Stonegate board of directors but I'm not here to promote myself. Rather, I'd like to ask that if you or anyone you know lives in...

    Homeless camps coming to Irvine

    Burn That Belly, you seem mildly entertained by this entire situation. Do you not live in Irvine?

    Nightmare childbirth at Hoag with Dr. Mercedes Sayago and Alex Deyan

    SoCal - thank you for the kind words. I really appreciate it. Unfortunately, as much as I'd like to believe it, I don't think we had a "normal" childbirth. If our experience was normal, then the bar is set pretty low. I have relatives in other parts of the world and they were all shocked that a...

    Nightmare childbirth at Hoag with Dr. Mercedes Sayago and Alex Deyan

    Your first statement about where you and your wife work is irrelevant. If anything, you probably received special treatment for being staff members. Your second statement is a strawman argument. It almost sounds like you think I should thank Dr. Deyan for even showing up or doing his job as a...

    Nightmare childbirth at Hoag with Dr. Mercedes Sayago and Alex Deyan

    To be honest, we thought it was standard care to see a nurse practitioner for the prenatal appointments. Only later we had learned it wasn't supposed to be that way.

    Nightmare childbirth at Hoag with Dr. Mercedes Sayago and Alex Deyan

    My story is 100% true and accurate and I stand behind it. I have everything documented and recorded. 1. Our OBGYN doctor was not present at our birth and there is no question about that. Any hospital nurse would testify to that as well as the doctor herself. I have a letter from Hoag confirming...

    Nightmare childbirth at Hoag with Dr. Mercedes Sayago and Alex Deyan

    I've complained to the medical board and to Hoag directors. I've also reached out to several lawyers but it seems our state is very hostile to medical lawsuits and the doctors have their asses covered from all directions. When there are no consequences it's no wonder there are doctors out there...

    Nightmare childbirth at Hoag with Dr. Mercedes Sayago and Alex Deyan

    I will definitely be writing to the CA medical board. I've also reached out to several lawyers.

    Nightmare childbirth at Hoag with Dr. Mercedes Sayago and Alex Deyan

    Hi Guys, I wanted to personally open up and share our birth experience in hope that I could save someone else from going through the same nightmare. I've posted my entire story in this blog: https://lessonsoflife.net/our-nightmare-childbirth-with-dr-mercedes-sayago-obgyn-review/ Moderators...

    Huge thanks to USCTrojanCPA!

    We recently completed the purchase of our new home that USCTrojanCPA has helped us find. He was never pushy and always gave us great and honest advice. It's just great to work with someone who has your best interest at heart, and not just trying to close another sale. He has guided us throughout...

    I thought so too, but all the boxes say "Smoked Oak".

    San Mateo - Refrigerator depth?

    Thanks! I did go to the model today and a standard depth fridge would definitely be awkward in that space. Strange though because it seems like counter-depth ones are pretty rare. Most stores only have a few (if any) on display, not to mention they are more expensive for some reason (you'd...

    San Mateo - Refrigerator depth?

    Thanks guys. It seems like it's the standard 25 inch. I'll go measure anyway just to be safe. Would a standard depth fridge be suitable for this space? I noticed those run roughly 33 to 36 inches deep and I'm wondering if that would look weird since the fridge will be sticking out. If anyone has...

    San Mateo - Refrigerator depth?

    Hello! Anyone here from San Mateo who happens to know what the refrigerator cutout depth is? I could just go out to the model and measure but I'm being lazy and thought I'd post here and ask first :) Thanks in advance! :)
